During interviews with the FBI, the suspect arrested in the pipe bomb probe told investigators that he believed the 2020 election was stolen, according to CNN and NBC.
The FBI arrested Brian Cole, 30, on Thursday on charges that he planted pipe bombs near the Republican and Democratic National Committee headquarters the night before the 2021 US Capitol riot.
The FBI and the DOJ have yet to comment.
Did Cole plant the bombs to bring the system down and to avenge Trump? It would be easy to conclude that. However, DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro told CBS News that he was an equal opportunity bomber:
“He was disappointed in various aspects of the election, but this guy was an equal opportunity bomber,” Pirro said. “He was disappointed to a great deal in the system. Both sides of the system.”
